apparently by deleting Milly's messages her family still had some hope that she might still be alive

The greatest mystery it why the 'green book' was sold for a mere ONE SINGLE thousand pounds.

jenny60 · 12/07/2011 22:51

Sorry, lots of x posts. I'm reeling here over how badly RA of the Times just came across on Newsnight. He just doesn't ge it, does he?

I sold the white fiat for more than that.

teej · 12/07/2011 22:54

\link{http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2013994/Cameron-slopes-Wales-Ed-Miliband-takes-lead-BSkyB-takeover.html\Dave's been in Wales apparently} hence his Westminster silence (obv telecommunication from Wales not possible Hmm)

teej the usual; it wasn't so bad, all these inquiries will lead to the curtailing of press freedom, so sad that a great newspaper closed down, hacking, blagging etc... are not very widespread .... so depressing, no sense of guilt, culpability, responsibility or anything else. Depressing.

VivaLeBeaver · 12/07/2011 23:00

Watching news night. Blimey, 3800 people have had their phones hacked and most still haven't been told. Are the police planning on telling all the people affected?

chipstick10 · 12/07/2011 23:02

I must give him credit, murdoch looks gr8 for an 80yr old.

Ponders · 12/07/2011 23:05

given the amount of money at his disposal, I'm not sure he does, frankly, chipstick - my MIL is 87 & although she doesn't go jogging she looks better than him

otoh she couldn't run a multi-million-$ media company Grin

AwesomePan · 12/07/2011 23:06

Viva - the policewoman who was last today at the Select Cmte indicated they will all be told. As wecan guess there will be A LOT of people in v sensive positions who will be coming out in the media in the following weeks/months to provide detail.
Am sure this is an absolute watershed in how democracy is practiced in this country.

and of course there is the high possibility that other countries tabloids will have used or copied the techniquies applied by our dear own "investigative journalists", and will also be found out.

pointydog · 12/07/2011 23:07

He looks pretty much like an 80 year old to me.

chipstick10 · 12/07/2011 23:08

Also i know this is terribly shallow, sorry in advance, but i would kill for RB hair. Blush

pointydog · 12/07/2011 23:08

In a Mr Burns way

headfairy · 12/07/2011 23:10

awesomepan Oh sooo many!!

Grin at mr Burns.

AwesomePan · 12/07/2011 23:10

you're right chipstick10. It is very shallow indeed.

esp. as it hides so many serpents, a la the Medusa.

hammybobs · 12/07/2011 23:11

I just want to marvel at Hugh Grant saying 'bollocks' on news night.

That's it, nowt else to add at this point Grin

LucaBrasi · 12/07/2011 23:13

Yeeeeeaaaaas, as Jeremy Paxman says, Jenny60. I think Roger Alton from the Times is wondering when the darts start get thrown in his direction.

Interesting history.. wondering what he fell out with the Guardian for? And the 'yummy mummy' mumsnet piece is of course now a piece of MN history

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Alton

Terribletriplets · 12/07/2011 23:13

Teej. (big big glare). You have done your wash.

butterbeerbelly · 12/07/2011 23:16

It's uncanny how alike they look. Does the pet resemble the master or the master resemble the pet? If Mr Burns gets lucky, he could sprout fab red curls!

teej · 12/07/2011 23:26

viva i think they have told 175 out of the 3800 so yes, quite a few more to go
triplets blardy children find it impossible to come home without having trashed whatever they had on, i had no choice (bit like DC backing EM's motion in the HoC tomorrowWink)
butterbeerbelly i have wondered if RB is actually RM's lovechild, to inspire such devotion. it's just all these references to her being like a daughter to him...

teej · 12/07/2011 23:27

good grief - had you seen the front pages of the papers on News24 before posting about Mr Burns pointy?

Terribletriplets · 12/07/2011 23:31

teef, I sent you a pm! hope you acknowledge it tomorrow?
